The RO will determine your retro pay by calculating what they owe you minus what they paid you, then pay you the difference. Keep an eye on your bank account, you will most likely see the funds before your get the RO Decision. You should also get a separate BVA decision to let you know of your grant. Now if the BVA also remanded anything, this may put a hold on things, and it will move slow, but I would say it should take a few weeks.

Best Regards Chiefhouse00 The software system is set up to automatically make the calculations mentioned by @pacmanx1. That said it calculates based on the "inputs" it receives - classic GIGO (garbage in, garbage out). The devil is in the details for all claims. You should figure out (ask for help here, VSO, etc.) what you were entitled to (monthly, overall, but also each compensation-producing factor) and then do the math yourself. You can always request a manual audit if you discover any discrepancies. Congrats and good luck! Rhage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Moderator broncovet Posted June 9, 2022 Moderator Share Posted June 9, 2022 After a board decision, but prior to you receiving money, the VARO should send an "implementation" decision. Rarely, the money comes first, then you get the VARO decision. Remember, you can appeal ANY PORTION of a board decision, including effective date, percentage, SMC, etc, "even when" another portion of the decision is denied, granted, or remanded. As always, if you chose to appeal a board decision, get after it right away, you dont get a full year to appeal..only 120 days. So read the board decision carefull, ask hadit if its unclear, and decide if an appeal is warranted. "Remands" can not be appealed because they are not final decisions..a remand means it is sent to someone else to readjuticate, in compliance with the remand instructions. Awards can be appealed, if you dispute the effective date or disability percentage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I feel they got it wrong they deposited the funds before I got both my BVA letter and my notification letter from the RO of the breakdown of years back pay.

0 lee.edwards Posted June 10, 2022 Author Share Posted June 10, 2022 Greetings Thanks for the Retro payment breakdown process. It's been 10 days since I received the BVA and VA rating decision letters...no deposit yet. My last DFAS Audit was in 2018. As a result of my Grant, my new ratings from 2000 to 2009 were increased. Will those increases require another DFAS Audit? Best Regards Chiefhouse00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen timing from just a few days, to a year or longer. My advice is to get a hobby, such as fishing, or something else you love. There is an old adage, "a watched teapot never boils".
